Danish Resistance Armband

[Roy]

Hi Gents,

Following on from the loss of a dear friend 18 months ago, his family has asked me to sell his small collection. To that end I will be asking for some assistance of prices etc. I will of course offer these items here on the forum first.

This first item I would like resistance with is a Danish Resistance armband. It is called a "Frihedskaemperarmbind" and as I understand it specifically a 'type II' variant.

My friend was fastidious in his research of such pieces but never kept any record on valuation etc.

So any assistance with what a piece like this would be worth would be most helpful?

Cheers,

Roy

Hi Stephen,

Here you go. No markings that I know of. Will be able to provide more details when it's in my hand as the family is planning to mail me the collection soon but thought I would get a start.

Cheerio,

Roy

Very good luck with this project. There are some good Scandinavian folks on this forum - I hope they can help.

Thank you for that Mike,

I'm doing this to help the family out, so not making a penny but just want to do the right thing by my departed friend and his family. It's only a small collection but it will be good to find these pieces a good home and get some funds to the family.

Cheerio,

Roy
